Jupiter, the fifth planet from the sun, is the stuff of watercolour dreams. Vibrant bands of clouds ripple around its thick atmosphere, forming a world large enough to fit more than 1,300 Earths inside. Its Great Red Spot appears to be peering out from the swirling vapours like a massive eye in the face of a striped giant. Jupiter, though seemingly serene from the relative safety of our home world, is a chaotic and stormy place. The spots and swirls on the gas giant planet are caused by massive storms that whip up prevailing winds as fast as 335 miles per hour at the equator—faster than any known wind on Earth.
